We can come back! From this coming Monday, students may return to the campus for physical teaching one day a week. But how feasible is it to open the campus on April 26? Will the Erasmus University be able to put everything in place in such a short time? And what will the teaching look like in practice? Five questions and answers about the education starting next week.<\/p>\n

1. Will it really be possible to start teaching on Monday?<\/h2>

For a number of faculties, this will be possible, but it will probably not work to have everyone in the lecture hall one day a week. It will be a very slimmed down version of the normal situation. According to a spokesperson for the Executive Board, the university is leaving the practical side of implementation to the faculties. \u201cIt will be determined by each faculty and programme separately, so it may differ. As soon as more can be communicated about this, each programme will inform the students and staff.\u201d<\/p>

In Erasmus MC, there will be more teaching from Monday, but not a lot will change, explained Maarten Frens, dean of education of the medical faculty. \u201cUnlike the other faculties, a lot of our teaching is physical. This is due to the practical element in our teaching. Internships are still going on, we were allowed to keep giving practical training.\u201d The Erasmus School of Social and Behavioural Studies (ESSB) is also planning to adjust its teaching from Monday.<\/p>\n\t
